Results questionnaire about evaluation competencies
A rising demand for high quality evaluation services in the public, private and voluntary sectors has induced growing reliance on evaluation guidelines issued by national and regional evaluation societies. In 2009, the EES Board decided to launch its own competencies initiative under the aegis of its “quality of evaluation practice” Activity Stream. As a first step, it endorsed a membership survey designed to trigger a substantive Society wide debate about the desirability and feasibility of constructing an evaluation competencies framework adapted to Europe’s multi-facetted needs. Competencies connote the abilities, skills, capacities or qualifications to handle a task, fulfill a function or deliver a service.
On behalf of the EES Board, we wish to thank all the members who took the time to participate in the competencies survey. A 
summary of the survey results can be found here. Feedback would be most welcome.
